Actually you can use fish-like autocomplete feature in zsh with this plugin [1]. It works well for years in my machine.

I didn't know that, thanks! I wonder why i haven't seen this for BASH considering its probably the most common shell other than Command Prompt.

I don’t think people who use bash actually want to use it. even macos switched to zsh a few years ago.

The macOS change was likely driven by the license which keeps the shipped Bash at version 3.

The numbers for Homebrew installations of Bash suggest hundreds of thousands of people choose to use it.

I have it for running scripts, not for use as a shell

I don't think it parses manpages for autocomplete?
